SUFFRAGETTES AND SUFFRAGISTS

The Suffragettes and suffragists were a women's
suffrage* movement in Britain, aiming to achieve 'Votes
For Women' or to enable women to vote in
parliamentary elections. They Campaigned in the late
19th and early 20th centuries and used many kinds of
tactics to draw attention to their cause, from art,
debate, and propaganda, to attacks on property
including window smashing and arson. They
Campaigned in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

SUFFRAGETTES VS SUFFRAGISTS
The main difference between suffragists and suffragettes was that suffragists
campaigned using only peaceful and constitutional methods such as lobbying
while suffragettes were determined to win the right to vote for women by any
means, and went to great lengths including illegal, violent, and militant
campaigns. A popular example of a suffragette was Emeline Pankhurst, she was a
leading suffragette for 40 years. A popular example of a suffragist was Millicent
Fawcett, she served as the leader of the suffragists for 50 years

law that made married women little more than
the property of their husbands, but in the end,
the goal was achieved and the women were
given the right to vote.
